NAME

psf2bsd - convert a PC Screen Font file to a BSD soft-font kernel header

SYNOPSIS

psf2bsd [--name=NAME] [--typeface=NAME] [--encoding=ENC] [--first=FIRST] [--last=LAST] [INPUTFILE [OUTPUTFILE]]

DESCRIPTION

psf2bsd converts a font in the .PSF format to the format used by the NetBSD 'wsfont' kernel headers.

OPTIONS

--name=NAME

Sets the name of the C structure that will contain the font. This defaults to 'font'. For example, --name=bold8x16

--typeface=NAME

Sets the displayed name of the typeface. For example, --name=Boldface

--encoding=ENC

Sets the encoding to use. This should be one of the WSDISPLAY_FONTENC_* macros. For convenience, you can also use --encoding=437 as shorthand for WSDISPLAY_FONTENC_IBM and --encoding=819 for WSDISPLAY_FONTENC_ISO.

--first=FIRST

Sets the first character to include in the output file.

--last=LAST

Sets the last character to include in the output file.

BUGS

For anything other than the simplest test cases, horizontal alignment of the output will almost certainly look untidy.
